In the early stages I have seen this project being referred to as "sqlite rewrite in Rust" which is untrue and dishonest at multiple levels. Pure stolen valor. Disgusting.

Understood. But is it productive to cooperate with someone who will never admit lack of information?

It is a bit naive to expect Indian students to even know about /security.txt existence, let alone reading it.

And given the founding principles of bureaucracy, no set of documents is ever correct because there are at least two contradictory regulations on any given topic.

I'm working on a Docker-like software for macOS Guests on macOS Hosts. Prototype's done. No, Dockur is ancient for Intel macOS which is almost useless in today's development as some dev tools are only available for Apple Sili

Excellent! If LLMs are capable of delivering completely automatically a solution that includes that many tasks then surely in 6 months from now programmers will be out of job. /s

by egorfine 9mo ago
Ah, this. Of course, but if your single request to claude code requires 30+ tasks then it's certainly way too big for llm to code from scratch.

Exactly this. Common folks like "tough on crime" postures of politicians and never consider nuance, which is everything. Yeah, crush them, those white-collared fraudsters.

You should bear in mind that thinking of an IT specialist or a software developer is very much uncommon among population. As developers we tend to think alike worldwide. But walk out the door and ask ten (older) German people whether they w

I believe that's something it does automatically now. In the past it did help a lot, but now it's the default behavior.

> this move My point is that this move will not happen. I don't believe EU can overcome a huge and extremely motivated army of bureaucrats.

There is a huge spectrum between "require impossible documentation" and "require none". Germany and EU are heading towards the former.

I badly need slimmed down macOS for CI VMs. Yeah, some little things can be cut out but most of the time not. On the other hand, macOS is not that much memory-hungry as one might think. Like, a 4GB VM can start and build software.

I have tried full-on agentic coding twice in the last month. 1) I needed a tool to consolidate *.dylib on macOS into the app bundle. I wanted this tool to be in JS because of some additional minor logic which would be a hassle to implement
